    Sorry to hear about that! It's hard to coordinate all that at once. It doens't help when the vendor doesn't do it's job.

    That truck is going to be really nice when it's done.

    went and picked her up this afternoon...just got in and all i can say is the radix is one hell of a daily drivers friend..we got there and went for a tuning session allen worked his magic once more my friends and all is well... im running a 3.1 pulley and it runs nice thru the gears...spins the tires from the 1-2.my average mpg on long trips has been 18.8 driving 70 to 74 mph and i got 21 mpg coming home at 75 mph.allen and johnathan did a fantastic job on the install even with a few hurtles to jump along the way so i cant thank them both enough didnt get any dyno pulls as we were kinda running out of time so we will do that another day...thanks again nelson performance

    Hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine. Big difference and lots of fun.

    Thanks too for your help, encouragement and support in getting me going on this site and at performancetrucks.net. You were the first to respond to me when I first joined these forums with all my questions and your initial help got me going and got my Radix and trans updates done. You made a differnce. Thanks.
